Hello, I have been lurking around this forum and have gained some valuable knowledge however I have hit somewhat of a stone wall. Something which I hear quite often and agree with is that in order to make a successful business you need to solve a problem however how can I find these problems? Where could I find any problems to solve? do I get into more hobbies and discover problems or is there another more effective way? I know there's not one answer to this question but if I could get a nudge in the right direction that would be appreciated. I know this kind of question is Elementary but it has haunted me for a while so a nudge in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
